A Must Try Dhaba- Sharma Dhaba

There are some days when you want to eat something rustic, something traditional and have it all at a decent place that is OK to go with your family then Sharma Dhaba fits the bill. 


However a Dhaba is a Dhaba, no more- no less! If you go to this place and expect an ambiance then i guess, you do not know what dhabas are. Sharma Dhaba is on the seekar road highway- G 445, Block I, Road No. 12, Sikar Road, Opposite Punjab National Bank, Vishwakarma Industrial Area |Behind RIICO Complex.



The Menu


Spicy chuki Mirchi & Lachha pyaaz (Onion salad & charred pickled chillies)


Naan, Panner & Malai Kofta


Mawa Naan






It is a wonderful rustic place if you are looking at experiencing a typical rajasthani dhaba. Its vegetarian and the food is high calorie but tasty & nice. The Jaipur residents go there a lot when they feel like a long drive or just want to go out of the city and have a non-pretentious experience. 


Sharma dhaba is also a nice simple option for a sunday lunche. My favorite food here is the MAWA NAAN! A specialty available only at very few places it is a Naan Bread stuffed with creamy sweet condensed milk.

My last visit, I  ordered Butter naan, Tandoori roti, Missi roti, Yellow daal tadka, Malai Mattar and paneer butter masala. Dont forget to try the Lahsan ki Chutney (A spicy garlic chutney- Rajasthani specialty), Chhuki Mirchi- Green chillies kinda roasted and fried- and the Lachha pyaaz.

Definitely worth a try!!

Great Highway Hangout serving beautifully plated International fare

If you are looking to go for a long drive, or wanting to celebrate a special occasion away from the bustle of the city SKY WALTZ CAFE is the perfect place!

 This is a special Menu that we got done for one of the birthdays and costed us 2500 INR for 2 persons.

Wild Mushroom Risotto with Confit Chicken Leg

Lamb & Red Wine Broth




Apple Feta Salad

Sizzling Prawns with Kalamata Olives



Butter Poached Salmon



Skywaltz is located  on the 228 KM Stone, Delhi Jaipur Highway, Near Tala More and is beautifully done. There is an option to sit in the open garden or the closed indoor bohemian space.

BRUNCH PLACES IN JAIPUR


Sunday is that day of the week when we wake up late and post a very light bite, like going out for a Brunch. Here are a list of places, I love to go for brunches with friends and family.

ANOKHI: Fully vegetarian, serving organic food this is a nice place to spend a few hours grabbing lovely stuff ranging from Pizzas to pastas. Salads, French  press coffee, ginger ale, lemonade, cakes and muffins. I particularly love the thai green bean salad, Pizza with caramalised onions goat cheese and walnuts, Egg Mayo Burger, Hummus tomato sandwhich and Chocolate ganache cake.

The atmosphere is great. A lot of foreigners are here and its always packed. One portion of Anokhi houses the signature store selling clothes, home furnishing, costume jewellery and knick knacks. READ REVIEWS OF ANOKHI ON:

OKRA AT MARRIOT: OKRA is the all day dining restaurant at Marriot and serves ala -carte and buffet with Indian, international and a variety of Asian fare. The Restaurant has a variety of live stations that include fresh pizzas, sushi, teppanyaki, Dimsums, Chaat & Indian Tikkas and curries. BTW, this is the only place in Jaipur serving sushi.

The salad bar is one of my most favourite stations and I love the Hummus, baba ganouj and Pita served here!! I also strongly recommend the burnt garlic fried rice and lemon chicken at the Teppanyaki counter. Sushi too is really nice. The Indian food is ok and the dessert counter has loads of great Indian mithai and pastries etc!!!

MOSAIC AT COUNTRY INN & SUITES: Mosaic is the multi cuisine restaurant and coffee shop at country Inn & Suites. This is another nice place, I love to grab a quick bite. They offer a decent variety to choose from. There is a buffet that changes on daily basis consisting of a huge spread with Indian and international variety and it’s priced decently. The ambiance is nice and the service great. They also offer a full spread drinks menu and many other beverages and desserts to choose from.

There is also an A-la-carte menu to choose from. They have things like chicken wings and fried prawns,  a few varieties of pastas, burgers, sandwiches and Mini Indian meals (biryani- served with salad and raita, chicken gravies/ mutton and chicken dishes served with naan/ Roti or parathas- sufficient quantities for 2). My personal favourite is Grilled fish with lemon butter sauce and capers, Ravioli in tomato sauce and Fish and chips with tartar sauce!!!
